Installing the Time Recorder
Unpacking and Inspection
Carefully un ack your recorder and ins ect it for
any damage. Verify that the following accessories
are included: three mounting screws, a case lock
key, and the General Service Instructions. Re ort
damage or shortages to the com any from which
the unit was urchased.
Site Requirements
The recorder should be mounted on a sturdy wall,
shelf, or other su ort area. Do not use the recorder
under the following conditions:
 extremely high or low tem erature
[o erating range: 0° to 50° C (32° to 122° F)]
 extremely high or low humidity
[o erating range: 0 to 90% RH non-condensing]
 areas of high dust concentration
 areas with extreme vibration or when laced on
an unstable or unlevel surface
Mounting the Recorder and Card Racks
The recorder requires an uninterru ted AC ower
su ly, and should be mounted within 6 feet of a
ower rece tacle to accommodate the unit's ower
cord. The suggested wall mounting layout for the
recorder and o tional card racks is shown in Figure
4. Suggestions for mounting on s ecific wall and
shelf surfaces follow.
Wooden/Plywood Walls
You may use the three screws included with the
recorder to mount the recorder. Install a screw in
the wall 53" above the floor. Leave enough of the
screw rotruding so the recorder will hang flat
against the wall through the "keyhole" on back of
the clock. Hang and level the recorder. Insert and
tighten screws through the lower left and right
mounting holes.
Masonry Walls
You may use lastic masonry anchors and screws
available at your local hardware store to mount the
recorder. Mark a location on the wall 53" above
the floor. Drill a hole with a 1/4" masonry bit and
insert a lastic anchor. Tighten a screw at this
location, leaving enough of the screw rotruding
so the recorder will hang flat against the wall through
the "keyhole" on back of the clock. Hang and level
the recorder. Mark the location of the lower left and
right mounting holes. Remove the recorder, drill
holes, and insert anchors. Re lace the recorder,
insert and tighten screws through the lower left
and right mounting holes, and fully tighten the
"keyhole" screw.
Sheetrock/Hollow Core Walls
You may use "molly" fasteners available at your
local hardware store to mount the recorder. Follow
the rocedure for masonry walls, using the "molly"
fasteners instead. Alternatively, you may use longer
wood screws to attach the recorder to a stud behind
the sheetrock, using the "keyhole" and the lower
center mounting hole on the recorder.
